Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0874193A2] A method and apparatus for dry vapor generation. A manifold assembly with a channel conveys liquid from a liquid source to a vessel (12) secured to the manifold assembly. The vessel includes a fill tube (152) connected to the manifold assembly's channel, and a settling chamber (14). A heater (150) heats liquid in the vessel to generate a vapor that enters the settling chamber (14) through its vapor inlet. The manifold assembly comprises two blocks in mating engagement wherein the outlet port of the first block is aligned with the inlet port of the second block. The outlet port of the second port block is connected to the vessels fill tube. <IMAGE>
